This series is proof.

Fox explosion: Children ratings are going right -through the roof. The Fox sitcom was the clear second place show at 8:30 p.m. last Sunday behind Murder She Wrote.

Married ranked 46th overall with a 1 2.5 rating, ahead of NBC's Day By Day (49th with a 1 1 .5) and ABC's Beverly Hills anniversary (67th with a 7.8).

He even did a little play-by-play while showing UC basketball highlights: "He's bumped! He pumps! Bingo!" The Frank Weikel Memorial Dart for the worst TV news feature during February sweeps goes to Channel 9's Lori Stafford for her Behind Bars" story at 1 1 p.m. Monday. She interviewed two prisoners a young Lincoln Heights woman never identified as a mother and a white-haired Indiana grandmother. And Stafford noted the Lincoln Heights inmate's "campus like" surroundings but never told us the name or location of the prison. Play ball: WLW-AM repeats Tom Browning's perfect game from 9 p.m.

JOHN KIESEWETTER Kiesewetter RadioTV here to Columbus, Dayton, Lexington, Louisville, Huntington and Charleston. The club also continues to research the impact of pay-per-view home games on Riverfront Stadium attendance, he says.

Tony Kiernan, Channel 5 general manager, says he'll work on a new pitch for next year. "We're going to have plenty of time to put together a viable package," he says. In March of 1986, the Reds and Warner announced a joint Reds Vision cable plan to televise 25 Reds home games on Warner's QUBE channel. The package cost $89 if fans subscribed before April or $100 after that date. Individual games cost $5.95.

More than 1,000 fans signed up for RedsVision in March, about one-fifth the target base desired by Roger Blaemire, then Reds' marketing executive. But Mrs. Schott dismissed Blaemire and pulled the plug on the cable TV before Opening Day that year. The ball club's statement cited inadequate time to "bring all this together before the start of the season." Virgil Reed, president of Greater Cincinnati's Warner franchise, says he hopes to have the Reds playing QUBE in 1990. He was not here for Warner's RedsVision attempt three years ago.

Will it hurt attendance? "I think it would be good for the Reds and the City of Cincinnati. I think there are a lot of people who can't make it to the stadium that these games would appeal to," Reed says. Would home games on QUBE hurt the Reds' attendance? "I certainly understand that fear," Reed says. "Hopefully anything we do will be a positive for the Reds and us." clues to Lockwood's past; Tommy McKay infiltrates the Dallas drug trade.

Warner cable recently struck out with its second pay-per-view pitch in three years to the Reds front office. More than 1,000 QUBE customers had signed up for the 25-game package in 1986, which was canceled before Opening Day that year. The 1989 package 10 home games for about per telecast was proposed jointly by Channel 5 and Warner Cable last month to Reds President Marge Schott.

Reds TV announcers Thorn Bren-naman and Johnny Bench would have described the cable games. "All the parties agreed that there wasn't enough time to do it correctly," says Stephen Schott, Reds executive vice president. However, the door to Schott's Riverfront Stadium office is open to cable TV proposals for the 1990 season from Warner or any other cable sports programmer, such as the new SportsChannel Ohio (a subsidiary of SportsChannel America, which holds National Hockey League TV rights). Interested in proposals "We're interested in proposals," he says. "We're simply looking for the situation that would maximize our exposure and benefit all parties, particularly the fans." Besides the lack of time, another problem with the Warner-Channel 5 proposal was that it would only reach Warner's service area not all of "Reds Country," and not Tristate cable customers served by Storer, Metrovision, Miami Valley and other cable systems.

Warner Cable of Cincinnati, the nation's 15th largest cable system, offers 142,000 QUBE (immediate pay-per-view) homes among its 165,000 customers. But the Reds are looking at a much bigger TV picture.
